La Justicia Restaurant

I have ordered there a couple of times and I thought maybe this time it would be diffrent but nope , I ordered my lunch abut 11:05 am they said 25-30 min. I show up at 11:40 am and it still was't ready . The service is horrible  the prices are high for this area, and they don't have your food ready on time . I don't think I will be ordering from here any more lesson learned .

I often times find myself saying to my friends.. If you really want good Mexican food.....Go where the Mexicans go!  

I am Mexican (my BF is not) thus, I can be critical of "Mexican" food in other areas outside of places like Little village, Pilsen and the likes.
 
Unfortunately, these areas are  not as attractive as places in the areas where the City spends the money to maintain the pretty neighborhoods.  Don't let the neighborhood aesthetics fool ya or scare ya away. You will get good, authentic Mexican food in these areas.

I had the opportunity to dine here on Cinco de Mayo  2011of all days.  After using Yelp to review many of the restaurants, I felt this fit the bill.
I was looking for place that served alcohol and had everything from tacos, tamales, seafood, red meat, beans and rice and some tasty alcoholic beverages.

Parking was on street and easy to find.

The decor is old school, Mexico, I thought it was fun and very comfortable.

We were seated right away and the chips and two types of salsa came right away and then we studied the menu while the basket of chips dwindled.

I ordered the combo entree, that consisted of a taco (lengua), tostada (beef) and enchilada (cheese). You get to pick what you want in each. It includes rice, beans and a small salad on the plate.  The BF ordered the Carne Asada with fries and rice.  He ordered up 2 Margaritas of which he thought were very tasty.

As we waited for our food to come, we were pleasantly surprised to get a small bowl of chicken soup. We didn't complain and ate it right up.
The food came out shortly after.

Everything was good and tasty. The salsa's were good so we ordered more and another basket full of chips. Man, we were stuffed when we left.

The tab was very reasonable.

We briefly talked to one of the owners before we left when we went to pay our bill at the back. Very nice guy.

Drove back to the South Loop and the BF went into a food coma 20 min. later. Now that's good eating!

We will be back and thanks for the experience.

Best mexican I've had in the USA.  I went with my fiance (mexican who moved here a few years ago) for the World Cup game (yes, this is a late review), and we loved it!  It's the first place in USA I've been to where the enchiladas were actually like those in MX!   We were so excited that we ordered something of everything and couldn't finish it.  Since it was World Cup season then (yes, I know this is late!), the restaurant was full of Mexicans in their colors cheering on tehir team, and then leaving in heartbreak (it was the game where they got eliminated by Argentina).  Overall - amazingly delicious and authentic!  After coming here, I realized how much i missed the food!
